Strawberry Crumb Bars

I’m great at taking a healthy food concept and turning it upside down into a kick ass butt dessert. For instance, this jar of preserves I was given at work a few weeks ago (My company has this awesome program where each month they partner with a local farm/store and provide every employee with a locally grown food item. It’s awesome. Especially when my co-workers give me their shares too. Bonus!) Along with this jar came a delicious-sounding healthy recipe for something like salad dressing.

Naturally I opened the jar and dipped my finger in to taste it immediately upon arriving at home (wouldn’t you?). My husband proclaimed this awesome jar of preserves was begging to be made into the best PB&J ever. Rebecca decided it was made for toast. Me? I, of course, went strait for the dessert option.

A very small part of me felt bad for not making a healthy recipe, as is the intention of giving us local foods. Then I got over it and ate a 2nd bar.
